TON of shake-ups on the TUF 26 Finale. Original main eventer Eubanks was hospitalized due to a botched weight cut and Roxy has stepped up to replace her. Lauren Murphy is also on the card, fighting Roxy's original opponent Barb Honchak. 

Action kicks off on UFC Fight Pass at 730pm ET before switching to FS1 at 8pm. 

Enjoy!

Especially after making weight three times during the course of the show.

I don't follow TUF these days. I'm so out of the loop that I almost forgot that there's a title fight tonight. How good are the top women on the TUF roster? Is there anyone that has the potential to be champion when the division becomes established like a Rose Namajunas?

@Fatality

I mean Montano and Eubanks both beat the two favorites of the tournament in Honchak and Modafferi respectively, so there's that. Although Eubanks botched her weight cut.

So the UFC has a new play by play guy commentating tonight that isn't Todd Grisham.  Let's hope he doesn't weigh DC down with uninformed commentary.

That was quite a delay in the reaction to those punches by Beck.  Regardless, that is a decent way to make a first impression by Dobson.

Dobson has good striking she ran into Roxi 1st Round of TUF though and was taken down easily. She's still green as are over half these girls from the show. With some work she may be able to stick around. Beck and the girl that just lost to Ostovich and Deanna Bennetts opponent probably shouldn't go any further after tonight in the UFC. Back to Invicta I'd say.
